Sadio Mane who joined Bayern from Liverpool this summer has not scored for them in the Champions League but Nagelsmann said he is happy with his performance.
"He's played in a new position today that he hasn't played before in Liverpool. We're happy to have him. He will certainly make his mark on our game.”
Nagelsmann also revealed that Lucas Hernandez who scored the first goal got injured later in the game. He said:
"He felt something torn in the adductor area. He wasn't moving smoothly in the dressing room."
Hernandez reportedly is undergoing an MRI scan after the match and could be set for a lengthy spell on the sidelines. Dayot Upamecano also took a knock to his knee and limped out of the stadium but told reporters that his injury is not serious.
